Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. is my favorite author. Here's a few of his gems:
"Any reviewer who expresses rage and loathing for a novel is preposterous. He or she is like a person who has put on full armor and attacked a hot fudge sundae."
"Life happens too fast for you ever to think about it. If you could just persuade people of this, but they insist on amassing information."
"Thanks to TV and for the convenience of TV, you can only be one of two kinds of human beings, either a liberal or a conservative."
"1492. As children we were taught to memorize this year with pride and joy as the year people began living full and imaginative lives on the continent of North America. Actually, people had been living full and imaginative lives on the continent of North America for hundreds of years before that. 1492 was simply the year sea pirates began to rob, cheat, and kill them."
"Another flaw in the human character is that everybody wants to build and nobody wants to do maintenance."
"Like so many Americans, she was trying to construct a life that made sense from things she found in gift shops."
